Predictions

This is one of the last matches of Group B in Acer Predator Masters, the loser of this match might not be able to qualify for the LAN Finals anymore. FlipSid3 are the clear favorites coming into this match, they managed to take down a couple of really strong teams in the recent days, their most noticable victory was a massive upset against Gamers2 as FlipSid3 beat them 2-0, overall the match was very one sided even though the score was quite close on train, it was more like FlipSid3 celebrating too early and throwing way too many rounds, they won the map 21-16 in the end, the second map was mirage and they look way better, FlipSid3 won map two 16-4 and took the series 2-0. FlipSid3 also beat Nostalgie, E-Frag and tied against London Conspiracy, these are not as surprising as the one against Gamers2, still really impressive results from FlipSid3, they are on fire right now.

Planetkey is a team of shady players, they were accused of cheating multiple times recently and there is a lot of unusual stuff happening in their matches, two of their players already got banned for cheating and they had to find replacements for them. Planetkey’s recent results are just fine, they managed to beat KILLERFISH, Arcade, DenDD and Playing Ducks, also played a relatively close series against dignitas. Planetkey are not that bad, but I don’t see them beating FlipSid3 in a best of 2 format, I’m sure FlipSid3 will take at least one map as they are way better of a team and I would favor them on pretty much every single map, they also need to win this match to have a guaranteed spot in the Acer Predator Masters LAN Finals.
